Origin and Processing

It grows in Yercaud, in the state of Tamil Nadu, a mountainous area in southern India at 1500 m.a.s.l. In this environment, the coffee develops a more structured profile with a very distinctive identity. The lot is linked to Riverdale Coffee Estate, a project that works with different processes to build cups with more character and definition.

In this case, the coffee is processed using the natural method, a process that encourages a greater concentration of natural sugars and results in a denser, rounder, and heavier cup. The result is a coffee with plenty of personality, especially interesting both on its own and in blends that need more body and intensity.
